And that's that...Irish win Irish Championship, French win English Championship.

I wouldn't have argued with a yellow. He's a lucky lad....again.

Pleased England scored 52, pity about the 11 the other way, first time in a while we've marmalised Italy

France only need to win by 71 and the title is theirs.

England will be kicking themselves if Ireland beat France - the points difference with 10 minutes to go was manageable.

Least France can't win it now, but who can predict what they will do tonight

Apart from losing against France, the obvious place the title was lost (if it is lost) was at Murrayfield where England didn't score enough against a poor Scottish team

Odd game. I suppose England's pressure caused Italy's errors and Italy missed a number of tackles. England were (apart from the first 5-10) mins very good at retaining possession and getting over the gain line.
Thought Italy were lucky not to get a yellow in the last 5 mins. Dunno what Farrell was doing, once he'd driven the guy off the ruck, job was done. |

Left perhaps 15-20+ points on the pitch today too. We screwed two try scoring chances up within 2 minutes at one point. |

I wonder what England's best 12 and 13 combination is now, there is a bit of competition. At least they have moved on from not really having a good combination

Indeed. We've butchered tries throughout this tournament. Had at least 2 very good scoring chances besides the ones we scored from against Scotland. May coughed up against Ireland and I'm sure there was another one too.

12Trees and Burrell, with Tuilagi on bench, that's it

Would be funny if Wales play well today without a certain number 10 at the helm

Yep...with the provision that Tuilagi can cover wing too so if centres are going well but we need a bit of impetus, Manu can play wing well enough if need be and supports well enough to come into midfield.
